On the final night of the tour promoting the new album Chris, Warren, Billy and Midge will be joined on stage for the encore by the lads from Monument.. Then Robin Simon walks out... then Stevie Shears... and then John Foxx...

...They launch into a 27 minute rendition of Slow Motion with a 10 minute screamier than a screamy thing from screamville synth solo from Billy...

No, it's something much more interesting I'm pleased to say MoTW. And my age, if you look on the forum hard and close enough in the right thread, is pretty well known. So no need for me to try to hide that.

@ David L - although as Paul has said, that's not what the little fella's got up his sleeve, the shameless opportunist in me cannot resist pointing out that something similar to what you suggest is already happening! Admittedly it's featuring PF3 as opposed to Monument (we're the other band that played that day) and it's up here in Edinburgh, but it does fall within a week of the anniversary in question and I'm sure Paul won't mind me announcing that he and Pip are planning to be there partly in recognition of that. Details are in the 'Your Music' section for anyone interested!

I know 100% this is Easter weekend...I should do after all as it is very rare for my birthday to fall near Easter!! May have to go & visit a little chap that weekend whose birthday falls the other side of Easter!!

Hi Dave, we had arranged a surprise for that date, but the surprise was on us when the arrangement with the venue fell through. That project has been put on hold for the foreseeable future unfortunately, but we are actively seeking alternate venues and dates to get out and play some gigs before those pesky meddling Ultravox boys come and force us to learn new material for the first time in 20 odd years...

I was in Glasgow last month for forum member "Shirl's" 50th birthday party, it was at Ivory Blacks and Simple Minds tribute band Simple Minded played, there was an 80s night on also, not a bad venue to be honest, I could just see Monument playing there, and as I walked in "Dancing with tears in my eyes" came on!

Actually Ian, it's about 50-50 between Scotland and England. In fact the latest two gigs were in London with the latter being in Camden last September...Mind you, if the price is right, we're not averse to a trip down again...
